Recording Movies
You can record movies by simply pressing the b (e movie-record) button.
Color tones, white balance, and other settings are the same as they are when
taking still images.
1 Turn on the camera and display the shooting
screen.
The movie options icon indicates the type of movie
recorded. The default setting is d HD 1080pP
(1920×1080) (A99).
When recording movies, the angle of view (i.e., the area
visible in the frame) is narrower than that of still
pictures. Press the s (display) button and display
the movie frame (A15) to check the range of a movie
in a frame before recording.
* The maximum movie length shown in the
illustration differs from the actual value.
2 Press the b (e movie-record) button
to start movie recording.
The camera focuses on the subject at the
center of the frame. Focus areas are not
displayed during recording.
When the multi selector K is pressed during
movie recording, the exposure is locked. To unlock, press K again.
When recording with the movie options of the aspect
ratio of 16:9 (e.g., Movie options is d HD 1080pP
(1920×1080)), monitor display changes to an aspect
ratio of 16:9 (the movie is recorded in the range shown
in the screen on the right).
The approximate remaining movie length is displayed
on the monitor. C is displayed while saving to the
internal memory.
Recording stops automatically when the maximum movie length has been recorded.
3 Press the b (e movie-record) button again to end recording.

The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing the maximum

indicator is flashing. Doing this could result in loss of data, or in damage to the camera or the
memory card.
